NASCAR's Kligerman Makes Rolex 24 Debut with Forte Racing at Daytona

The entry comes through a collaboration between Forte Racing and Big Machine Racing, owned by music industry executive Scott Borchetta. Two additional co-drivers for the No. 78 entry will be announced at a later date.
Kligerman brings significant racing experience with three wins and over 90 top-10 finishes across NASCAR's major series. This marks his first attempt at the prestigious 24-hour endurance race.
"I've dreamed of competing in this race my whole life," said Kligerman. "Forte Racing is a top-tier organization that's always at the front in IMSA competition. I'm excited to get up to speed in the coming weeks and help us race for the win — and, of course, a Rolex!"
Forte Racing enters its third IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship GTD season with a strong track record, including a victory at Motul Petit Le Mans and two top-five points finishes in previous seasons. While Goikhberg's full-season partner for 2025 remains unannounced, the team's previous drivers Loris Spinelli and Patrick Liddy were notably absent from IMSA's recently released Rolex 24 entry list.
